Beck Taps Memory Tapes, Amon Tobin For Philip Glass Remix LP

To celebrate the widely influential composer's upcoming 75th birthday, Beck and Hector Castillo have teamed up to create a remix album of the works of Philip Glass. Castillo in appropriate choice for the role as he's worked on several projects with Glass in the past, be it as an engineer or mixer. But here, he's helping Beck put together reworked versions of Glass' material from the likes of Amon Tobin, Cornelius, Memory Tapes, and former Battles frontman Tyondai Braxton. It's not clear when we'll be hearing the remix album, but we'll be sure to keep you updated when more details become available. [Pitchfork]
